2007 Lexus RX 350...200k Miles Later

2007 Lexus RX 350 review featuring a model with 200k miles. I see the appeal of these high mileage Lexus vehicles as they age extremely well. This 2007 RX 350 is no exception. I also reviewed the 2020 Lexus RX 350 if interested: • DON'T BUY The 2020 Lex...
I have featured many high mileage car reviews and I even recently posted a 2013 Lexus GS 350 with nearly 250k miles. This 2007 Lexus RX is the second-highest mileage vehicle I have featured and we will see how it compares to the Lexus GS I tested prior.

[@carspiv]

I work for Lexus. I used to manage the loaner fleet, but now I drive and manage a group of drivers who pick up guest vehicles for service and return them. I get to drive all models and years of vehicles. One guest who had an ‘06 RX400h (hybrid) had 270k miles on the vehicle. I arrived with a 2014 RX450h (this was a few years ago; loaner vehicles are seldom more than 1 model year old) and the guest had the opportunity to drive the newer vehicle while hers was being serviced. When the service on her vehicle was finished I returned her car to her. When I arrived, I asked what she thought of the newer version. “It’s really nice. I’d love to get one but THIS ONE (her 400h) JUST WON’T DIE!’ And so it goes. If you take decent care of these vehicles, you will, as I tell many of our guests, have the car for as long as YOU want it.

200k miles in Lexus terms is barely broken in.

[@MeynMotorGroup]

Lol yup

[@dannyanderson3704]

Idk about that, if maintenance history has been documented and taken care of then yeah I'd agree they have a ton of life left but any negligence in maintaining the car and def going to cause yourself some problems. I have only owned lexus since buying my first one because of how incredibly solid the engineering is in every one of their cars. Even the ES300 built to last. It's a car you only want to repair/maintain with OEM lexus parts, which are comparable to part prices of most cars respectably but reason being is because the parts last for such a long time and also preserves the integrity Lexus's are well known for. If you havent owned a Lexus in your driving career make it your next ride and I almost guarantee it will be the only brand car you continue to buy from then on. Just do your homework and be patient through out the searching/buying process. Find one you know has been maintained and driven like an adult.

agreed. The engine sound on the 3.5 is very niice. Definitely understated (by others). Additionally, because it's 1,000lbs lighter than a Porsche Cayenne, a 2007-09 RX will completely smoke an early base Cayenne (with the 3.2 liter). And quite possibly take the 2008/2009 3.6 liter

Hey been doing reviews of older SUV with 4WD or AWD for my daughter and have test driven the 2007, 2008, and 2009 Lexus RX 350, after I did that, no other SUV in that age range and price could even come close! Acura RDX and MDX nice but too boxy, and definitely a level below the Lexus RX 350! I'm looking for reliability and this model is # 1 in so many reviews! So it's #1 in reliability but it also provides a nice quiet ride and it's luxurious. It's a joy to drive! Thanks for the excellent review. BTW the engine on these RX 350's is still used by Toyota on several of their top tier cars! I'll let you look that up. We have a Toyota Sienna, hint, and it uses the same engine! Our Toyota Sienna has 333,000 miles on it with the original transmission and engine!

[@antoniocorona8906]

I actually brought the 2009 RX 350 Pebble Beach edition its super reliable, it drives like a car. at first I was like why would I by a soccer moms car but after test driving one It was sold. I used to own a 2016 Cadillac Escalade and it was a complete money pit everything broke down way before the 100k miles. it went from having lifter problems to the transmission issues. excellent video by the way.

[@skip123davis]

i just bought an '08 rx350 back in march. it only had 110k on the odometer, and all local dealer maintenance records! everything was recorded. it's also black, with brown interior (which i don't care for, but look at the total package), and aside from a few scratches, is in really good shape! i've been driving lincoln town cars since '05, and the first one (an '02) was awesome! best car i ever had! the second one (05 - w/48k on it), not so much. i bought that about 3 years ago having worn out my first one. i'm a salesguy that destroys cars! that the first one lasted so long was pretty impressive! one year a put 40k miles on a car! i could see the kwality direction ford was going, so i opted to shop for a used lexus. so far this thing has been great! as a salesguy, i've rented a metric ton of cars. i see all this radar, backup screen bullshit, and i'm like: this volvo is a great car that could go a long time, but when all this little stuff starts breaking, i'm screwed! what i like about the lexus is that all of it is simple. no electronic crap to break. all simple and reliable. you didn't mention that the mirrors helpfully aim down when you back up. that's new. it also has all wheel drive capability, and i live in the pacific northwest, so we sometimes get ice storms here. this certainly helps. i saw the one you drive is so equipped. i'm not going to go rock crawling with this, but that should be useful, although i've not had the opportunity to try it out. i also like to go to rural areas to do some plinking in dirt roads, and will have no problem taking it there for that purpose. i tend to let others pay the "new car tax" and then drive a slightly used car for 10+ years. i just wear them out. i also ride an ebike for local stuff. i'm 58, and this may well be my last car, since i don't drive as much as i used to.

[@MeynMotorGroup]

Excellent breakdown sir thank you very very much for sharing your experiences and I agree with your points a nice 10 year old or so Lexus will be solid and won't have a lot of the crap the new cars have I do really like the mirrors that go down in reverse thats a nice little tech feature haha thanks again for watching

Kevin, my first experience owning/leasing a Lexus vehicle was a 2007 RX350. It was for the same reason you noted that I pulled the trigger on it after Lexus introduced the 3.5 liter engine to replace the 3.3 liter. It had very good get up and go! I was in heaven driving that car for four years! When my lease ended, I got into a 2010 Lexus RX350 and my sister-in-law went ahead and bought the 2007 RX with the agreed upon price that they set at the end of a leased vehicle. She drove it another 5 years and I'm still driving my 2010 RX ten years later. Fit and finish is really incredible! Other than wear and tear on the leather seats and foggy headlights, every control still works and my '10 RX still drives like new! Very impressed by Lexus vehicles! Oh, and after trading in her RX on a Lincoln MKX and driving that for four years, my sister-in-law is back in a 2017 RX350 F-Sport! LOL!

Some of the earlier ES and Camrys with the engine had this issue too, but not as many.

If you’re having trouble fitting another person in the middle seat, you can adjust the position of the centre console. Open the cup holder cover in the front seat, there is a latch you can push down on in there to adjust

I think I agree with that. I have a '19 Ford Ranger with the Ecoboost I4 and I'm not entirely sold on it. It's a nice truck, but the little voice in the back of my head keeps telling me I should have paid a bit more and gone for the Tacoma with the naturally aspirated V6.

[@IKhanNot]

We have 5 high mileage Ford F150s with the 3.5 EcoBoost V6 motor and they all run great despite long idling and being driven hard by various employees. They're averaging right around 215,000 kms and show no signs of giving up. All have original engines, turbos and transmissions. The key to their longevity is changing the oil more frequent than what the manual calls for (we change every 7,000kms) and coolant flushes every 50,000kms. Keeps the turbos cool and lubricated which would be the biggest concerns.

The only thing I don’t like about it, is what he mentioned in the video about the rough tire noise when I drive it. But it’s funny because it still drives smooth. Also tire censor light is on and need to be fixed. Other than that the car is clean and was well taken care of by previous owner. Beautiful SUV I’m in love 🖤🖤🖤

I have an 04 rx330. Another added upgrade to having the rx350 is a timing chain vs a timing belt. That's around a $800 maintenance item done every 100k miles or so. Either way the Lexus RX series has got to be one of the greatest crossover SUVs of all time.

I will probably still buy toyota products, but I would say its "superior" to Audi, Benz etc.

[@Dirtyboxer1]

There are Audis and then there are Audis. If you stick with the lower end models that are built a bit simpler, then they last a long time. Where Audi gets into trouble is the same place BMW and Mercedes get into trouble: too much bleeding edge tech. Their higher-end cars are overly complicated with far too many expensive failure points. BMW in particular seems to have decided to build cars to lease, not own.

[@ColinYapp]

I currently have a 2008 RX-350 with 190,000 miles and recently changed out all the struts, springs, strut mounts and sway bar links. I decided to do so because it still drives like a dream and has no leaks. The only repair I have ever done on it over 130,000 miles, I bought it used with 60K, is the alternator. I was in the market for a 2015-2016 RX but when the pandemic hit, I hit the pause button and decided to leave well enough alone. It is driving really well now with the suspension pieces and I will try to squeeze out another 100k before I get rid of it. By the way, my 2002 Camry was left in Texas with my dad and it now has 315k miles on it. I am a Toyota guy and made the mistake of buying a BMW once, it was the worst mistake of my life. Got rid of it in 1.5 years.

I always liked this by style RX 350, recommended it to my parents to pick up a used one, 10 K for 2008 with 95,000 miles, I know it’s gonna be super reliable for the long term however of course immediately the water pump went out Which is a known problem and common On any car, in 2008 it came with different wheels and a standard power liftgate, highly recommend this and the RX 330, I’ve read that the RX330 is actually a little more reliable but you do have a timing belt rather than this which has a timing chain which doesn’t need replacement.

@@MeynMotorGroup They are hard to find, but out there. If you do get your hands on one, try & find a 2005-2010 to review since Lexus upgraded the shock absorbers in 2005 and the ride is much more in keeping with the car's mission. It's not a sports car and doesn't drive like one. It's not a corner carving machine that will set your heart on fire. That's why it got some bad press way-back-when, but those reviewers didn't understand what this car was about. It's a powerful grand touring luxury convertible.
